Haiti’s President Michel Martelly on Friday swore in Evans Paul as the nation’s new prime minister, and pledged to form a consensus government within 48 hours to solve a worsening political crisis.

Paul, a political opponent who was chosen after last month’s resignation of Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe, took office during a ceremony at government headquarters attended by diplomats and political figures.
